Geschmackvoll renoviertes Kleinod

Das Alte Schäferhaus sieht von außen ziemlich klein aus, entpuppt sich dann aber innen als durchaus geräumiges Kleinod. Alle 4 Schlafzimmer sowie Küche und Bad bieten ausreichend Platz. Jedes Zimmer hat indivuellen Flair und Charme. Das trifft auch auf Flur und Treppenhaus zu, und man merkt, dass viele Gedanken und handwerkliches Geschick in den Ausbau geflossen sind. Die Gastgeberin und ihr Mann sind nette und freundliche Leute. Es fällt schwer zu verstehen, warum sie Werbung für das - zum Glück erfolglose - Volksbegehren der Querdenker gemacht haben.

- wo im/am Schäferhaus fandest du eine Werbung diesbezüglich? - und warum unterhält man sich dann mit den netten freundlichen Gastgebern nicht darüber? - und was hat hier überhaupt eine mutmaßliche und noch dazu politische Bemerkung verloren? Schade, ich fand euch nämlich auch nett. Liebe Grüße Marion
